what's the deal with the person in the window behind the ear when he says "with tv ads all time time"
is that a celebration or a yawn?
Rachel, turn off Rubio! detracts from your guests and annoys your viewers... we get the point
I have never seen anything so cheesy as the continuous loop of Marco Rubio reaching for his water in the lower left corner. To be clear, I am a fan of the show, but if it's your goal to make it unwatchable--mission accomplished.
I agree 100%. That is something Fox would do- to make fun of him drinking water. You had plenty to work with from his stupid response.
Please never do that again with the rubio repeat. it was so fox news, it was sickening .
Your are terrified of a conservative hispanic rising star to oppose leftist Obama and you in the leftist media. So you make a big deal of his drinking water to clear his throat for his speech in his rebuttal. You and Rachel Maddow are drinking drano to disguise the foul lies ans stench blurting out of your leftist mouths . Go back to your rat holes !
Another troll temper tantrum!
Somebody call the WAAAAMBULANCE!!!
LOL!
Wow andy...how republican of you ...eagerly await the Hubris special next week impressed with your research as always Rachel glad I can post here from time to time ..don't do facebook or twitter...so I'll just like you and follow you here
Disgusting display of leftist character difamation of Sen Marco Rubio.
If Rache Maddow dosen't drink water during a soeech , she must drink drano to cover up the foul stench out of her mouth.
If Obama had done that crazy trolls like you would have a field day with it.
But hey, keep up the good work of creating that all important right wing double standard!
Stay thirsty, my friend!
LOL!!!
I agree andy, lets kill the messager.
Hey Rach! You made me laugh. Just today my husband and I were discussing the 'water bottle incident'. I had been listening to the conservative trolls on radio bashing 'libruls' for criticizing a 'sip of water'...as I was telling him what they said and how it was ACTUALLY the bobbing and weaving for the bottle that got Rubio, I said 'and another really petty thing but I think in a formal rebuttal or speech you should drink from a glass and leave the water bottles for the trail.' And then THERE YOU WERE AGREEING WITH ME! My husband just looked at me and nodded...
who is getting roses tomorrow?? .......just saying....
Huge fan - learn something every edition of the show. But agree the Rubio loop was a baaaaad idea. Hurt my eyes to have it cycling again and again in a rather large window. (Even Olbermann's repeated use of the Liimbaugh flailing his arms bug wasn't as large.)
The water thing was also a little tiresome the X#th time around. Wish instead we'd heard more about exactly how the Republicans are rationalizing that a filibuster isn't a filibuster.
Points offered as constructive feedback.
Good Luck on that. Rachel is her own self. She is a little bull-headed American that cares. We should consider ourselves luckly. She could easily play a bad guy in a James Bond movie. Yes it would break my heart, but I would still want to own the blue ray copy.
Don't mean to get off the subject,but was looking at Hagl fiasco and I don't know if it's just me but if you took a tuft of hair off of the top of Cruz's head and gave him a double chin ,voila! Joe McCarthy.
Since the subject is 'idiots', you're not off the subject at all.
Communism is bad, and why is that anyway? What if:
In exchange for relinquishing your moral responsibility, you get to hate without recourse? Kind of nice. And of course there must be slaves and masters in order to give it that old-world feel and tradition. And you will be a slave. Voting is a freaking joke and the government looks like an Al Capone operation. Why does that look so much like our last Bush Administration? Never mind.
If I ever ran an employment agency and one day this guy named Sherlock Holmes comes through my door, I would send him to TRMS. He would fit right in.
I don't agree with you simply because you agree with me. I respect your opinion even if mine is different, because I know how damn smart you are. If you take a stand, there has to be something behind it. I concur with your take on the President's speech. Here, again, I know how damn smart he is, so, if he's staking out a tactical approach that makes me nervous, I've got to go along with him and cross my fingers.
Thank you for the LBJ "ordering pants" tape. I've never heard it, but, in Texas that's what we call being 'plain spoken'. Sort of tugs at your heartstrings, doesn't it.
that was LBJ ? I thought it was Bush jr ? my bad
Aristotelian logic. .....Live Long ......and Prosper. ....Star Trek is so much better than Star Wars. Solving problems v. just killing.
Obama includes some of the original safe-cracker voter thieves in new committee to build a better voter lock-protection-system. The fox is guarding the hen house? Ok Rachel you have a point. However, I bet Obama is going to be looking over their shoulders quite a bit. Good father characteristics. And yes …hopeful….

That looks like a Gibson. me like.
My garage bands female bass player gets pissed when we do not work on Hale Storms, I miss Misery….. girls.. what do they know……..
The LBJ & the pants piece was HILARIOUS!
RUBIO
Rubio's parents did in fact leave Cuba two years prior to Castro coming to power. How could he not be sure of this little fact? Bullcorn.
